INHALATION: After high vapor exposure, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing has stopped,
trained personnel should immediately begin artificial respiration. If the heart has stopped, trained personnel should immediately
begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
SWALLOWING: Rinse mouth. Give plenty of water to drink. Do NOT induce vomiting. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY.Rest. Do NOT give liquids to an unconscious or convulsing person.
HSAE1 SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FIRE & EXPLOSION PREVENTIVE MEASURES: NO open flames, NO sparks, & NO smoking. Above flash point, use a closed
system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment, lighting. Do NOT use compressed air for filling, discharging, or
handling.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use dry powder, AFFF, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray, water in large amounts, carbon dioxide.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water spray may be ineffective on fire but can protect fire-fighters & cool closed
containers. Use fog nozzles if water is used. Do not enter confined fire-space without full bunker gear. (Helmet with face shield,
bunker coats, gloves & rubber boots). Use NIOSH approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.
UNUSUAL EXPLOSION AND FIRE PROCEDURES: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE!! VAPORS CAN CAUSE FLASH FIRE. Keep
container tightly closed. Isolate from oxidizers, heat, sparks, electric equipment & open flame. Closed containers may explode if
exposed to extreme heat. Applying to hot surfaces requires special precautions. Empty container very hazardous! Continue all
label precautions!
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE MEASURES: EVACUATE DANGER AREA! Consult an expert! Vapors may ignite explosively &
spread long distances. Prevent vapor buildup. Keep unprotected personnel away. Ventilate spill area. Remove all ignition
sources. Filter respirator for organic vapors.
CONTAINMENT AND CLEAN-UP MEASURES: Stop spill at source. Dike and contain. Collect leaking liquid in sealable
containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Remove to safe place. Do NOT wash away into sewer.
SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Isolate from oxidizers, heat, sparks, electric equipment & open flame. Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid
breathing of vapor or spray mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin or clothing. Wear OSHA Standard goggles or face shield. Consult
Safety Equipment Supplier. Wear gloves, apron & footwear impervious to this material. Wash clothing before reuse. Avoid free
fall of liquid. Ground containers when transferring. Do not flame cut, saw, drill, braze, or weld. Empty container very hazardous!
Continue all label precautions! Drinking alcohol shortly before, during or after use can cause unwanted effects. High
concentrations in air cause a deficiency of oxygen with the risk of unconsciousness and death. Check oxygen content before
entering area. Do NOT use in the vicinity of a fire, a hot surface, or during welding.
STORAGE: Vapors may ignite explosively & spread long distances. Prevent vapor buildup. Put out pilot lights & turn off
heaters, electric equipment & other ignition sources during use & until all vapors are gone. Keep in fireproof surroundings. Keep
separated from strong oxidants. Keep cool. When using, loosen bung slowly to relieve pressure. Do not store above 38 C/100
F. Contact with hot surfaces can produce toxic gases. Keep container tightly closed & upright when not in use to prevent
leakage. Contact with hot surfaces can produce toxic gases.
SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION:
RESPIRATORY EXPOSURE CONTROLS: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI
Z86.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
VENTILATION:
LOCAL EXHAUST: Necessary
MECHANICAL (GENERAL): Acceptable
SPECIAL: None
OTHER: None
Please refer to ACGIH document, "Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices", most recent edition, for
details.
